i had crank ground and i put oversized bearings in.. i went to start it and it backfired hard alot. i got it running but now it has a bad knock, do you think that i could have messed the bearings up when it backfired??

Sounds like your firing order is off.

The only way I know of testing it is to pull it off and put oil in one side, rotate the pump and make sure it moves to the other side.  At that point you are just as well off replacing it.

Did it scar up the crank or just the rod bearing?

Get a new oil pump, sometimes the oil relief valve gets stuck open, I blew
a turbo and the rod bearings because of one pump with a bad blow off

Make sure you put the O ring on the oil pickup tube or you won't get oil pressure because of loss of suction.

Did you prime the pump before you ran it?

use bearing grease instead of white grease? yes i cleaned the crank dipped the entire thing into a bucket of hot water with a concentrated mix of dawn dish soap. used a little file on the oil holes to take the edge off used a air compressor to blow it out. all of the other bearings got oil to them but the number 1
